View of houses overhanging the River Lot at Espalion in the Aveyron department of France.

---

The town of Espalion stands on the banks of the river Lot. The buildings in this image were once old tanneries who used the water from the river in their trade. The galleried houses overhang the river and today are best viewed from the Pont Neuf, an old sandstone packhorse bridge.
